Are Cyberhub Article Writers Sexist?

One of the yucky parts of creating your own websites is the process of getting backlinks.  An easy way to do this is article marketing.  Create articles about your website subject, include links back to your website and submit them to article directories. Although I do write for a living, sometimes it's easier to outsource these types of articles so that I can focus my time on tasks that no one can do but me. Usually, ...

A New Free Traffic Source and an Update

I'm still working hard towards my $1500 goal and I've realized a couple of things. 1. I love researching and setting up niche blogs.  I enjoy it much more than actual article writing and it has a longer and higher income potential. 2. I still enjoy article writing, but I hope to suppliment my full time income with more niche blogging than flat fee article writing. The good thing is that I can work on my niche ...

Switching to Infolinks Gets Results

Hello all. I have been busy writing my little fingers off here lately and there are several new things that I would like to share with you.  As you may know, I have a whole network of blogs now and I'm always looking for new ways to monetize them.  For a while, I ran Kontera on a couple of these sites.  Kontera shows ads as text links inside your blog posts. After never quite reaching a ...

Why do Women Blog? For the perks, of course!

I bought Amy Bass's The Niche Blogger in January of this year and began to learn about building my own niche blogs using wordpress. When I started I knew nothing about SEO or how to get a website ranked, much ...

IM Report Card and Ninja Style

Hi there people. I'm a little stunned right now because my husband just spotted a huge snake right outside our front door on the porch.  He nearly stepped on it when he was taking out the trash.  Fortunately, it's only a grass snake, but startling none the less. I've been busy working away on my goal of saving $1500 by the end of the year and so far so good! I had a very nice surprise in ...

Flipping a Website – My First Attempt

admin blogging

Since I’ve been blogging for a year now, I decided that it’s time that I learn a little about flipping a website.  My mindset is this: if it sells, great – if not, it’s a learning process and I will learn what I can do better next time.

I have decided to use flippa.com to sell my site. It costs $19 to list your site and their step by step process is actually quite easy.  I also had the advantage of a tutorial on blog flipping from The Niche Blogger.  This was extremely helpful in me getting the blog ready to flip.

As far as what happens when the blog sells, we’ll see.  The tutorial shows me how to transfer it myself, but if I can sell it at the BIN price, I want to outsource someone to move it for me.

If I may offer some advice, I believe listing your website w/ it’s earnings stated in the title as well as using a different theme would have worked to your benefit. Even more, you could have provided a “How-to” guide to either monetize your traffic, or build an opt-in list which would have greatly increased its chances of receiving a higher bid.

Because I noticed that it only brought in $8 per month in profit, what selling price/BIN price were you going for?

Even though it didn’t sell, you can still use this time to relist it after you’ve added on some additional features that are sure to gain potential buyers’ attention.
